I just started meds yesterday and the change in my focus and attention to detail is mind blowing. My only concern is, just yesterday I had a tough feedback session with my manager around how I’m taking too long to complete my work, giving them anxiety around close deadlines.

Hello fine people,
I have a question. I am a GDS employee wishing to relocate to another country as EY country “x” employee. The plan to relocate to country x was already in motion, if not EY then another org.

Is there a way I can approach this with my leaders? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I realize there are much larger problems right now, but if anyone has any tips or advice to get over this, I am all ears. Thanks all!
